Nate scored his first goal of the season...
Ella and Naomi, talking pacis and blankies.....:)
Nate had a blast hammering the nails....he worked the entire time and loved every minute
Nate and my Aunt Cindi, the birthday girl....
Within minutes of arriving, Nate was ready to work....we, as a family, built a wall complete with a window....
soccer and serving on a beautiful saturday morning.....
Football is in full swing these days, which means Joel has stayed busy with games on the weekends. This past Saturday morning, I took Nate to his soccer game -he scored his first goal of the season and helped his team secure a victory! He loves soccer, easily his most favorite sport. He either loves to drive the ball into the goal or play goalie....
After his game, we headed over to an already-in-progress Habitat for Humanity project at another local church. If I could have recorded the sound I would have....it was so neat to hear hundreds of hammers hitting nails all at the same time....for hours!!! The sound never stopped the whole time we were there.....the teams built 2 house frames in less than 4 hours!! Both houses are for folks right here in Louisville. Nate enjoyed this more than I thought he would. Naomi did great...she slept most of the time in her stroller....I guess the loud hammering put her to sleep :) This project was my Aunt Cindi's 60th birthday wish, to have the whole family come and spend the day together building a house. It was wonderful, productive, and Christ honoring. What more could we ask for? I so desire for my children to have a heart for Jesus and a heart for serving others. Being able to do both, together as a family, was wonderful and just what we needed.
Looking forward to this weekend. Joel does not have any football games scheduled beyond Friday night. We have a soccer game Saturday, dinner plans and lots of freetime in between....!!
Have a blessed week....
